How many driving lessons did you have before you passed your test?

My 17th birthday is in a week and i’ve saved up a bit of money for lessons and car neccesities but i looked at the DVLA web page and it said i need an average of 45 lessons. At like about £20 a lesson that’s just too much for me.

Were they right about that number or can it be done with a lot less paid lessons just home practise?

You are required to have a certain amount of hours behind the wheel before you take the test.
You don’t have to pay a driving school to have all the hours.
Just drive with a 21yr old license driver and document the amount of hours you’ve driven, but I do suggest you spend at least 6hrs. behind the wheel with a certified driving instructor, that will also help reduce your insurance rates.

    find a sympathic friend who’s a good driver and a large empty car park, and practice,, then take a lesson or two.
